We will operate tomorrow (Wednesday Sept. 13) on a 2-hour delay! We know there will still be inconveniences but this will provide for buses to be operating in full daylight and for those without power to get ready with some light! We hope this situation continues to improve hourly! We have been in constant contact with Emergency Services and the Sheriff's Dept. to monitor all areas.

Due to power outages and debris on roads across the county, Abbeville County School District will be closed for students and employees on Tuesday, September 12. Please stay safe! Our priority is the safety of our students and employees! Thank you!

We've been working with the National Weather Service through assistance of our Abbeville County Emergency Services and have made the decision to CANCEL school for students and employees for Monday, Sept. 11. Our area could expect to see sustained winds and wind bursts. This cancellation includes all after-school/evening events. We will keep you notified of other changes, should they occur! Please take necessary precautions and stay safe!
